yh i would of said pod, but then i realised he hasnt even got his helmet done up, what an idiot. i think someone should read the articles si paton put on recently
im not saying its a bad pick..i mean its sooo nice, colours are awesome!!! but...have you guys seen the edited one?? its pretty nice too but this gets pod vote for sure
the edited one of this is dope and desrve POD to:P i f*ckin love these kind of pics even though i bmx i just love to see the pics of them just f*ck'n given it around them f*ckin corners, props to all you DH riders out there!
Everything about this picture is amazing... The sharpness, the editing, the riding, the bike, the rider... I'm out of words... About time this got POD. Congrats and props to the rider, photographer, and editor.
Im not trying to start an argument, but what is with pinkbike and helmets? I mean, it ultimetly his choice to wear one or in this case, buckle one. Right?
Does it not seem like this is an excellent example of merging two different photographs...since that is what it is. The shot is TOO crisp to be real, no offence or anything, but to whoever fiddled with it did a wonderful job. If you do not know what I am talking about, let me clarify. The background is a picture of reasonably dry ground, and the rider has been added to the foreground of the picture.
You're right? I always liked that the rider looks so tiny compared to the rocks and debris lying around. Now that you mentioned it, it became clear. THANKS!
ooor: the photographer could have been using an insanely nice f/1.8 or faster lens so that the shutter speed could be insanely high (1/4000 or so) freezing the subject without the picture being underexposed... that huge aperture gives the pic just about no depth of field, so everything fore and aft of the rider is out of focus...
totally possible, especially if youre a good photographer
To everyone who thinks it was photoshopped i can assure you its not. All those pics were taken by a professional photographer for a local news paper, the guy is amazing As for any other criticism get a grip go ride your bike and get a better pic. Peace out dogs.
GIVE ME NEGATIVE PROPS GIVE ME NEGATIVE PROPS GIVE ME NEGATIVE PROPS GIVE ME NEGATIVE PROPS GIVE ME NEGATIVE PROPS GIVE ME NEGATIVE PROPS GIVE ME NEGATIVE PROPS yours sincerley tom
Amazing shot. Even though it is a photoshopped image, (the rider has been super-imposed onto the backround, thats why all the stuff in the backround is the wrong size/scale. have another look before you negative prop me!)
It has been professionally done to an outstanding standard, whoever did it is skilled! and if they dont do graphics for a living, they should!!
Excellent colours and sharpness. deserves POD for sure.
How do they get it so sharp and so vibrant, but it's kinda funny how it looks like a model, like a model train would be though or like a warcraft scene lol
pod and riding a glory!! THIS IS MY POD! i love glorys. they are seriously the best bike out there with a decent price tag. im getting a glory 0. POD!!
That is at Stainburn, the new decent line, background looks odd as the area has just been clear felled and then picked over by "Clixbys" with a BIG 360 rock grabber/crusher to build the new line. regards PJ @ singletraction.org.uk Yorkshire trailbuilders. Another shot of the same track www.singletraction.org.uk/gallerypage.php
coooool i ride this trail alllll the time but if he wants to keep the trail a secret i wont say were it is. i did the boulder drop 4 the first time a few weeks a go. well pleased!!
Very nice, maybe a bit too sharp but I think it's real, shame about the helmet strap, it's so pointless wearing a helmet it you can't be arsed to do it up.
I love the way people cannot tie helmets with the two rings, what gives like are ya stupid or what. This is a great shot but no way should it be POD with a flapping strap like that!!!
you know its a good picture for many reasons one of those being : on thing you can bitch or pick out thats bad about it is a safety hazard to him/herself...aka brain buckets undone
perp-rider-04 has the right idea...downhill pics are getting boring...im not dissing the pic, its the fact of DH pic after DH pic after DH pic...its boring as hell...get exitement in the pods!
BORING all the pods nowadays are fuckin dh
dh is good
but all dh pods gets boring after a while
get some pics on for pod like trails street park
hell i would even settle for some ski-ing aslong as its not dh then put it up as pod
